NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

(1) Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Business Description

ScanSource, Inc. is a leading global provider of technology products and solutions. ScanSource, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") provide value-added solutions from technology suppliers and sell to customers in specialty technology markets through its Worldwide Barcode, Networking & Security segment and Worldwide Communications & Services segment.

The Company operates in the United States, Canada, Latin America and Europe. The Company sells products into the United States and Canada principally from a facility located in Mississippi; into Latin America principally from facilities located in Florida, Mexico, Brazil and Colombia; and into Europe from facilities located in Belgium, France, Germany and the United Kingdom.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared by the Company’s management in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring and non-recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position as of December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017, the results of operations for the quarters and six months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the statements of comprehensive income for the quarters and six months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the statements of cash flows for the six months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. The results of operations for the quarters and six months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Except as described below, there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies for the six months ended December 31, 2017 from the policies described in the notes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017. For a discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies, please see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains zero-balance disbursement accounts at various financial institutions at which the Company does not maintain significant depository relationships. Due to the terms of the agreements governing these accounts, the Company generally does not have the right to offset outstanding checks written from these accounts against cash on hand, and the respective institutions are not legally obligated to honor the checks until sufficient funds are transferred to fund the checks. As a result, checks released but not yet cleared from these accounts in the amounts of $7.5 million and $8.3 million are included in accounts payable as of December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017, respectively.

Long-lived Assets

The Company presents depreciation expense and intangible amortization expense individually on the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements. The Company's depreciation expense related to selling, general and administrative costs totaled $3.5 million and $6.7 million for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2017 and $2.4 million and $4.5 million for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2016, respectively. Depreciation expense reported as part of cost of goods sold on the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements totaled $0.9 million and $1.6 million for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2017. There was no depreciation expense reported as part of cost of goods sold prior to the acquisition of POS Portal on July 31, 2017. The Company's amortization expense reported on the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements relate to selling, general and administrative costs, not the cost of selling goods. Intangible amortization expense totaled $5.5 million and $10.5 million for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2017 and $4.2 million and $7.3 million for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2016, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard for contracts with customers that will supersede most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance under Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). In March, April, May and December 2016 the FASB issued additional ASUs to provide supplemental adoption guidance and clarification to ASU 2014-09. The core principle of this standard is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, the standard provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized. Other major provisions include the capitalization and amortization of certain contract costs, ensuring the time value of money is considered in the transaction price, and allowing estimates of variable consideration to be recognized before contingencies are resolved in certain circumstances. This guidance also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. This guidance will be applicable to the Company for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2018. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial results to determine the appropriate transition method for the Company. The Company has engaged a third-party consultant to assist with developing a multi-phase plan to assess the impact of adoption and is currently in the process of finalizing its conclusions on several aspects of the standard including principal versus agent considerations, identification of performance obligations, and the determination of when control of goods and services transfers to the Company’s customers. Additionally, the Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the expanded disclosure requirements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) requiring lessees to reflect most leases on their balance sheets and recognize expenses on their income statements. Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize a lease liability, which is a lessee's obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis, and a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. The asset will be measured at the lease liability amount, adjusted for lease prepayments, lease incentives received, and the lessee's initial direct costs. For leases with a lease term of 12 months or less, as long as the lease does not include options to purchase the underlying assets, lessees can elect not to recognize a lease liability and right-of-use asset. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged, and the accounting for sale and leaseback transactions is simplified. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. This guidance will be applicable to the Company for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2019. The guidance must be adopted using a modified retrospective approach for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its consolidated financial statements upon the adoption of this new guidance.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. This guidance was adopted by the Company prospectively on July 1, 2017. The new standard simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures and statutory withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. Under the new guidance, an entity will recognize all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement. This change eliminates the current practice of recognizing excess tax benefits in additional paid-in-capital ("APIC") and tax deficiencies in APIC to the extent that there is a sufficient APIC pool related to previously recognized excess tax benefits. In addition, excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies are considered discrete items in the reporting period they occur and are not included in the estimate of an entity’s annual effective tax rate. As for classification on the statement of cash flows, excess tax benefits will no longer represent a financing activity since they are recognized in the income statement and will appropriately be classified as an operating activity. See the Condensed Consolidated Statements of

Table of Contents

Cash Flows for the six months ended December 31, 2017 for the prospective presentation of classifying excess tax benefits as an operating activity, not a financing activity as in prior years. The ASU allows an entity to elect as an accounting policy either to continue to estimate the total number of awards for which the requisite service period will not be rendered (as currently required) or to account for forfeitures when they occur. The Company elected to maintain its accounting policy to estimate to the total number of forfeitures for stock awards granted. In regards to statutory withholding requirements, the new guidance stipulates that the net settlement of an award would not result, by itself, in liability classification of the award provided that the amount withheld for taxes does not exceed the maximum statutory tax rate in the employees’ relevant tax jurisdictions.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) intended to reduce diversity in practice of how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The update addresses eight specific cash flow issues, with the treatment of contingent consideration payments made after a business combination being the most directly applicable to the Company. The update requires that cash payments made approximately three months or less after an acquisition's consummation date should be classified as cash outflows for investing activities. Payment made thereafter up to the amount of the original contingent consideration liability should be classified as cash outflows from financing activities. Payments made in excess of the amount of the original contingent consideration liability should be classified as cash outflows from operating activities. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The standard will be applicable to the Company for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2018. Early adoption is permitted, provided all eight amendments are adopted in the same period. The guidance requires adoption using a retrospective transition method. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its consolidated financial statements upon the adoption of this new guidance.

The Company has reviewed other newly issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they are either not applicable to its business or that no material effect is expected on its consolidated financial statements as a result of future adoption.

(2) Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common and potential common shares outstanding.

(4) Acquisitions

POS Portal

On July 31, 2017, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of POS Portal, Inc. ("POS Portal") a leading provider of payment devices and services primarily to the small and midsized ("SMB") market segment in the United States. POS Portal joined the Worldwide Barcode, Networking & Security segment.

Under the purchase agreement, the all-cash transaction included an initial purchase price of approximately $144.9 million paid in cash at closing. The Company paid an additional $3.4 million for customary closing adjustments during the six months ended December 31, 2017. The Company acquired $4.6 million in cash, net of debt payoff and other customary closing adjustments, resulting in $143.8 million net cash paid for POS Portal. The agreement also included a cash earn-out payment up to $13.2 million based on POS Portal's earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) for the trailing twelve months (TTM) ending September 30, 2017, which was paid in full during the quarter ended December 31, 2017. A portion of the purchase price was placed into escrow to indemnify the Company for certain pre-acquisition damages. A portion of the escrow was released during the quarter ended December 31, 2017. As of December 31, 2017, the balance available in escrow was $13.1 million.

The purchase price of this acquisition was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the transaction date. The goodwill balance is primarily attributed to expanding the Company's high-value capabilities and market reach across all payment channels. Goodwill, identifiable intangible assets and the related deferred tax liability are not deductible for tax purposes. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented for the acquisition of POS Portal because such results are not material to our consolidated results.

Intelisys

On August 29, 2016, the Company acquired substantially all the assets of Intelisys, a technology services company with voice, data, cable, wireless, and cloud services. Intelisys is part of the Company's Worldwide Communications and Services operating segment. With this acquisition, the Company broadens its capabilities in the telecom and cloud services market and generates the opportunity for high-growth recurring revenue.

Under the asset purchase agreement, the Company made an initial cash payment of approximately $84.6 million, which consisted of an initial purchase price of $83.6 million and $1.0 million for additional net assets acquired at closing, and agreed to make four additional annual cash installments based on a form of adjusted EBITDA for the periods ending June 30, 2017 through June 30, 2020. The Company acquired $0.8 million of cash as part of the acquisition, resulting in $83.8 million net cash paid for Intelisys initially. A portion of the purchase price was placed into escrow to indemnify the Company for certain pre-acquisition damages. As of December 31, 2017, the balance available in escrow was $8.5 million.

The purchase price of this acquisition was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the transaction date. The goodwill balance is primarily attributed to entering the recurring revenue telecom and cloud services market and expanded market opportunities to grow recurring revenue streams. Goodwill and identifiable intangible assets are expected to be fully deductible for tax purposes.

Total debt	$	360,932	$	97,300

Revolving Credit Facility

The Company has a multi-currency senior secured revolving credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A., as administrative agent, and a syndicate of banks (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) that is scheduled to mature on April 3, 2022. On August 8, 2017, the Company amended the Amended Credit Agreement to increase the committed credit facility from $300 million to $400 million. The Amended Credit Agreement allows for the issuance of up to $50 million for letters of credit and has a $200 million accordion feature that allows the Company to increase the availability to $600 million, subject to obtaining additional credit commitments from the lenders participating in the increase. The Company incurred $0.3 million in debt issuance costs in connection with the August 8, 2017 amendment.

At the Company's option, loans denominated in U.S. dollars under the Amended Credit Agreement, other than swingline loans, bear interest at a rate equal to a spread over the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or alternate base rate depending upon the Company's ratio of total debt (excluding accounts payable and accrued liabilities), measured as of the end of the most recent quarter, to adjusted earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") for the most recently completed four quarters (the "Leverage Ratio"). This spread ranges from 1.00% to 2.125% for LIBOR-based loans and 0.00% to 1.125% for alternate base rate loans. Additionally, the Company is assessed commitment fees ranging from 0.175% to 0.35%, depending upon the Leverage Ratio, on non-utilized borrowing availability, excluding swingline loans. Borrowings are guaranteed by substantially all of the domestic assets of the Company and a pledge of up to 65% of capital stock or other equity interest in certain foreign subsidiaries determined to be either material or a subsidiary borrower as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement.

At December 31, 2017, the spread in effect was 1.625% for LIBOR-based loans and 0.625% for alternate base rate loans. The commitment fee rate in effect as of December 31, 2017 was 0.250%. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the credit facility as of December 31, 2017.

The average daily outstanding balance during the six month periods ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $261.8 million and $129.7 million, respectively. There was $44.6 million and $208.1 million available for additional borrowings as of December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017, respectively. There were no letters of credit issued under the multi-currency revolving credit facility as of December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017.

Long-Term Debt

On August 1, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with the State of Mississippi to provide financing for the acquisition and installation of certain equipment to be utilized at the Company’s Southaven, Mississippi warehouse, through the issuance of an industrial development revenue bond. The bond matures on September 1, 2032 and accrues interest at the 30-day LIBOR rate plus a spread of 0.85%. The terms of the bond allow for payment of interest only for the first 10 years of the agreement, and then, starting on September 1, 2018 through 2032, principal and interest payments are due until the maturity date or the redemption of the bond. The agreement also provides the bondholder with a put option, exercisable only within 180 days of each fifth anniversary of the agreement, requiring the Company to pay back the bonds at 100% of the principal amount outstanding. As of December 31, 2017, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under this bond. The interest rate at December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017 was 2.23% and 1.93%, respectively.

Debt Issuance Costs

As of December 31, 2017, net debt issuance costs associated with the credit facility and bond totaled $1.5 million and are being amortized on a straight-line basis through the maturity date of each respective debt instrument.

(7) Derivatives and Hedging Activities

In an effort to manage the exposure to foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, the Company periodically enters into various derivative instruments. The Company’s accounting policies for these instruments are based on whether the instruments are designated as hedge or non-hedge instruments in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not designated as hedging instruments and the ineffective portions of cash flow hedges designated as hedging instruments are adjusted to fair value through earnings in other income and expense.

Foreign Currency Derivatives – The Company conducts a portion of its business internationally in a variety of foreign currencies. The exposure to market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates arises from foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities, and transactions arising from non-functional currency financing or trading activities. The Company’s objective is to preserve the economic value of non-functional currency-denominated cash flows. The Company attempts to hedge transaction exposures with natural offsets to the fullest extent possible and, once these opportunities have been exhausted, through forward contracts or other hedging instruments with third parties. These contracts hedge the exchange of various currencies, including the U.S. dollar, Brazilian real, euro, British pound, Canadian dollar, Mexican peso, Chilean peso, Colombian peso and Peruvian nuevo sol. While the Company utilizes foreign exchange contracts to hedge foreign currency exposure, the Company's foreign exchange policy prohibits the use of derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

The Company had contracts outstanding for purposes of managing cash flows with notional amounts of $100.6 million and $67.1 million for the exchange of foreign currencies as of December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017, respectively. To date, the Company has chosen not to designate these derivatives as hedging instruments, and accordingly, these instruments are adjusted to fair value through earnings in other income and expense. Summarized financial information related to these derivative contracts and changes in the underlying value of the foreign currency exposures are as follows:



	Quarter ended					Six months ended
	December 31,					December 31,
	2017		2016			2017			2016
	(in thousands)
Net foreign exchange derivative contract (gains) losses	$	121	$	(199	)	$	942		$	(959	)
Net foreign currency transactional and re-measurement (gains) losses	473		507			(160		)	1,879
Net foreign currency (gains) losses	$	594	$	308		$	782		$	920

Net foreign exchange gains and losses consist of foreign currency transactional and functional currency re-measurements, offset by net foreign currency exchange contract gains and losses and are included in other income and expense. Foreign exchange gains and losses are generated as the result of fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar versus the Brazilian real, the U.S. dollar versus the euro, the British pound versus the euro, and other currencies versus the U.S. dollar.

Interest Rates - The Company's earnings are affected by changes in interest rates due to the impact those changes have on interest expense from floating rate debt instruments. To manage the exposure, the Company has entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $50.0 million scheduled to mature on April 3, 2022. This swap agreement is designated as a cash flow hedge to hedge the variable rate interest payments on the revolving credit facility. Interest rate differentials paid or received under the swap agreement are recognized as adjustments to interest expense. To the extent the swap is effective in offsetting the variability of the hedged cash flows, changes in the fair value of the swap are not included in current earnings but are reported as other comprehensive income (loss). There was no ineffective portion to be recorded as an adjustment to earnings for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2017.

The components of the cash flow hedge included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of income taxes, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, are as follows:

(8) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Under this guidance, the Company classifies certain assets and liabilities based on the fair value hierarchy, which aggregates fair value measured assets and liabilities based upon the following levels of inputs:


•	Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;


•	Level 2 – Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability;


•	Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e. supported by little or no market activity).

The assets and liabilities maintained by the Company that are required to be measured or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis include the Company’s various debt instruments, deferred compensation plan investments, outstanding forward foreign currency exchange contracts, interest rate swap agreements and contingent consideration owed to the previous owners of Network1 and Intelisys. The carrying value of debt is considered to approximate fair value, as the Company’s debt instruments are indexed to a variable rate using the market approach (Level 2 criteria).

The following table summarizes the valuation of the Company’s remaining assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2017:

The investments in the deferred compensation plan are held in a rabbi trust and include mutual funds and cash equivalents for payment of non-qualified benefits for certain retired, terminated and active employees. These investments are recorded to prepaid expenses and other current assets or other non-current assets depending on their corresponding, anticipated distribution dates to recipients, which are reported in accrued expenses and other current liabilities or other long-term non-current liabilities, respectively.

Derivative instruments, such as foreign currency forward contracts, are measured using the market approach on a recurring basis considering foreign currency spot rates and forward rates quoted by banks or foreign currency dealers and interest rates quoted by banks (Level 2). See Note 7 - Derivatives and Hedging Activities. Fair values of interest rate swaps are measured using standard valuation models with inputs that can be derived from observable market transactions, including LIBOR spot and forward rates (Level 2). Foreign currency contracts and interest rate swap agreements are classified in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as prepaid expenses and other current assets or accrued expenses and other current liabilities, depending on the respective instruments' favorable or unfavorable positions.

The Company recorded contingent consideration liabilities at the acquisition date of Network1, Intelisys and POS Portal representing the amounts payable to former shareholders, as outlined under the terms of the purchase agreements, based upon the achievement of a projected earnings measure, net of specific pro forma adjustments. The contingent consideration due to the former shareholders of POS Portal was paid in full during the quarter ended December 31, 2017. The current and non-current portions of these obligations are reported separately on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the contingent considerations (Level 3) are determined using a form of a probability weighted discounted cash flow model. Subsequent changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities are recorded to the change in fair value of contingent consideration line item in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements. Fluctuations due to foreign currency translation are captured in other comprehensive income through the changes in foreign currency translation adjustments line item as seen in Note 3 - Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss).

POS Portal is part of the Company's Worldwide Barcode, Networking and Security Segment. Network1 and Intelisys are part of the Company's Worldwide Communications and Services segment.

The fair values of amounts owed are recorded in current portion of contingent consideration and long-term portion of contingent consideration in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The U.S. dollar amounts of actual disbursements made in connection with future earnout payments are subject to change as the liability is denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar and subject to foreign exchange fluctuation risk. The Company will revalue the contingent consideration liabilities at each reporting date through the last payment, with changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration reflected in the change in fair value of contingent consideration line item on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Income Statements that is included in the calculation of operating income. The fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities associated with future earnout payments is based on several factors, including:


•	estimated future results, net of pro forma adjustments set forth in the purchase agreements;


•	the probability of achieving these results; and


•	a discount rate reflective of the Company’s creditworthiness and market risk premium associated with the United States and Brazilian markets.

Worldwide Barcode, Networking & Security

POS Portal

The contingent consideration due to the former shareholders of POS Portal was paid in full during the quarter ended December 31, 2017. As such, no liability is recorded as of this reporting date and no change in fair value of the contingent consideration is recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements for the quarter ended December 31, 2017. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, the change in fair value of the contingent consideration recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements contributed a loss of less than $0.1 million.

Worldwide Communications & Services Segment

Intelisys

The discounted fair value of the liability for the contingent consideration due to the former shareholders of Intelisys recognized at December 31, 2017 was $90.7 million, of which $32.3 million is classified as current. The change in fair value of the contingent consideration recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statement contributed a loss of $5.1 million and $9.2 million, respectively, for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2017. The change in fair value for the quarter and six month period is primarily driven by the recurring amortization of the unrecognized fair value discount and an adjustment to the probability weights in the discounted cash flow model. Although there is no contractual limit, total future undiscounted contingent consideration payments are anticipated to range up to $115.2 million, based on the Company’s best estimate of the earnout calculated on a multiple of earnings, before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization.

The discounted fair value of the liability for the contingent consideration related to Intelisys recognized at December 31, 2016 was $98.2 million, of which $25.5 million is classified as current. The change in fair value of the contingent consideration recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statement contributed a loss of $2.3 million and $3.2 million, respectively, for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2016, primarily driven by the recurring amortization of the unrecognized fair value discount, partially offset by an increase in the discount rate used.

Network I

The discounted fair value of the liability for the contingent consideration due to the former shareholders of Network1 recognized at December 31, 2017 was $6.3 million, all of which is classified as current. For the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2017, the change in fair value of the contingent consideration recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements contributed a loss of $1.8 million and $14.5 million, respectively. The change in fair value for the quarter is primarily due to improved actual results. The change in fair value for the six month period is primarily driven by a change in estimate of the current year payment to the former shareholders of Network1, additional agreed upon adjustments to the projected final settlement and improved actual results for the second quarter. In addition, volatility in the foreign exchange between the Brazilian real and the U.S. dollar has driven changes in the translation of this Brazilian real denominated liability. Although there is no contractual limit, total future undiscounted contingent consideration payments are anticipated to range up to $7.1 million, based on the Company’s best estimate of the earnout calculated on a multiple of adjusted earnings, before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, plus the effects of foreign exchange.

Table of Contents

The discounted fair value of the liability for the contingent consideration related to Network1 recognized at December 31, 2016 was $12.7 million, of which $7.3 million is classified as current. For the quarter ended December 31, 2016, the change in fair value of the contingent consideration recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements contributed a loss of $0.2 million, primarily driven by the recurring amortization of the unrecognized fair value discount, partially offset by an increase in the discount rate used and less-than-expected results. For the six months ended December 31, 2016, the change in fair value of the contingent consideration contributed a gain of $0.1 million, primarily driven by less-than-expected actual results, partially offset by the recurring amortization of the unrecognized fair value discount. In addition, volatility in the foreign exchange between the Brazilian real and the U.S. dollar has driven changes in the translation of this Brazilian real denominated liability.

Imago

The contingent consideration due to the former shareholders of Imago was paid in full during the quarter ended December 31, 2016. The change in fair value of the contingent consideration recognized in the Consolidated Income Statements contributed a gain of $0.8 million and $1.1 million, respectively, for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2016. The change in fair value is primarily driven by actual results that were less-than-expected, including special adjustments as determined by the stock purchase agreement. In addition, volatility in the foreign exchange rate between the British pound and the U.S. dollar drove changes in the translation of this British pound-denominated liability.

(10) Commitments and Contingencies

The Company and its subsidiaries are, from time to time, parties to lawsuits arising out of operations. Although there can be no assurance, based upon information known to the Company, the Company believes that any liability resulting from an adverse determination of such lawsuits would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company expects total capital expenditures to range from $8 million to $11 million for fiscal year 2018, primarily for IT investments.

During the Company's due diligence for the CDC and Network1 acquisitions, several pre-acquisition contingencies were identified regarding various Brazilian federal and state tax exposures. The Company is able to record indemnification receivables that are reported gross of the pre-acquisition contingency liabilities as sufficient funds to pay those obligations were escrowed or the Company is entitled to offset those obligations against future earnout payments under the share purchase agreements. However, indemnity claims can be made up to the entire purchase price, which includes the initial payment and all future earnout payments. The table below summarizes the balances and line item presentation of these pre-acquisition contingencies and corresponding indemnification receivables in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017:

There have been no changes in the classifications and amounts of pre-acquisition contingencies recognized from June 30, 2017.

(11) Income Taxes

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act reduces the corporate federal tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018 and implements a territorial tax system. Since the Company has a June 30th fiscal year-end, the lower tax rate will result in a blended U.S. statutory federal rate of approximately 28% for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2018, and 21% for subsequent fiscal years. As part of the Tax Act, U.S. companies are required to pay a one-time transition tax on the deemed repatriation of undistributed foreign earnings and remeasure deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Income taxes for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2017 have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements using an estimated annual effective tax rate. In addition to applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to pre-tax income, the Company also includes certain items treated as discrete events to arrive at an estimated overall tax provision. The table below summarizes the effect of discrete items on the income tax rate for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2017.



	Quarter ended			Six months ended
	December 31, 2017			December 31, 2017
	(in thousands)
Income before income taxes	$	20,310		$	27,090
Accrual income tax rate⁽¹⁾	28.0		%	29.8		%
Accrued income tax expense, before discrete items	5,681			8,074
Discrete tax expense (benefit):
Transition tax on repatriation of foreign earnings	9,300			9,300
Remeasurement of deferred taxes (U.S.)	(3,510		)	(3,510		)
Remeasurement of deferred taxes (Belgium)	900			900
Other	(30		)	210
Total net discrete tax expense	6,660			6,900
Provision for income taxes	$	12,341		$	14,974
Effective income tax rate	60.8		%	55.3		%
Income tax rate effect of discrete items	32.8		%	25.5		%

⁽¹⁾The estimated effect of the rate change for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2017 is a benefit of approximately $1.6 million.

The Company’s effective tax rate of 55.3% for the six months ended December 31, 2017 differs from the current federal statutory rate of 21% primarily as a result of items recorded discretely, income derived from tax jurisdictions with varying income tax rates and the application of a blended U.S. federal rate for the current fiscal year as a result of tax reform legislation.

As part of transitioning to the territorial tax system the Tax Act includes a mandatory deemed repatriation of all undistributed foreign earnings that are subject to a U.S. income tax. For the quarter ended December 31, 2017, the Company recognized a provisional discrete income tax expense of $9.3 million for a one-time transition tax liability on total post-1986 foreign subsidiaries’ earnings and profits (“E&P”) that were previously deferred from U.S. income taxes. The Company has not yet completed the calculation of total post-1986 foreign E&P for foreign subsidiaries and the tax expense currently recognized may change as the value of cash and other specified assets changes, which is part of the basis of the transition tax. No additional income tax expense has been provided for any remaining undistributed foreign earnings not subject to the transition tax and any additional outside basis difference inherent for these entities as such amounts continue to be indefinitely reinvested in foreign operations. Further, the amount of related unrecognized deferred tax liability is under review but not practicable to estimate at this time.

As part of accounting for the Tax Act, the Company remeasured certain deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which such deferred taxes are expected to reverse in the future, which is generally 21%. For the quarter ended December 31, 2017, the Company recognized a provisional discrete income tax benefit of $3.5 million for the remeasurement of the Company’s net deferred tax liability balance. However, the Company is still analyzing certain aspects of the Tax Act and refining calculations, which are dependent on final results for fiscal year 2018, which could potentially affect the measurement of these deferred taxes or give rise to new deferred tax amounts.

At December 31, 2017, the Company has not completed accounting for the tax effects of the enactment of the Tax Act. The Securities and Exchange Commission has issued rules that would allow for a measurement period of up to one year after the enactment date of the Tax Act to finalize the recording of the related tax impact. The Company currently anticipates finalizing and recording any resulting adjustments by the end of the current fiscal year 2018. The Company made a reasonable estimate of the one-time transition tax and remeasurement of existing deferred tax balances. The transitional impacts resulted in a provisional income tax expense of $5.8 million as a discrete event for the quarter ended December 31, 2017. The Company has not been able to make a reasonable estimate for any additional outside basis difference inherent for foreign subsidiaries as these amounts continue to be reinvested in foreign operations. The Company continues to account for those items based on existing accounting under ASC 740, Income Taxes. The Company will continue to provide for U.S. income taxes for the current earnings of its Canadian subsidiary. The provisional estimates provided may be impacted by a number of additional considerations, including, but not limited to, the issuance of final regulations, the Company's ongoing analysis of the new tax law and the Company's actual earnings for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2018.

The Company had approximately $2.1 million and $2.2 million of total gross unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017, respectively. Of this total at December 31, 2017, approximately $1.4 million represents the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that are permanent in nature and, if recognized, would affect the annual effective tax rate. The Company does not believe that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within twelve months of the reporting date.

Table of Contents

The Company conducts business globally and one or more of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal, various state, local and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities in countries and states in which it operates. With certain exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for the years before June 30, 2012.

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. As of December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017, the Company had approximately $1.2 million and $1.1 million accrued for interest and penalties, respectively.

Financial results in Belgium for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2017 produced a pre-tax loss of approximately $1.7 million and $0.8 million, respectively. In the judgment of management, the conditions that gave rise to the recent losses are temporary and that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized. If Belgium business does not return to profitability as expected, this could affect the valuation of certain deferred tax assets. Belgium enacted a corporate tax reform law on December 25, 2017 which reduces the corporate tax rate from 33% to 25% over a three-year period. The Company remeasured certain deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which such deferred taxes are expected to reverse in the future. As a result, the Company recognized income tax expense of $0.9 million as a discrete event during the current quarter.

Recent Developments

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act") was enacted in the United States on December 22, 2017. The Tax Act reduces the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018, implements a territorial tax system, and requires companies to pay a one-time transition tax on earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that were previously tax deferred, as well as creates new taxes on certain foreign-sourced earnings. See Note 11 - Income Taxes in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

On July 31, 2017 we acquired substantially all of the outstanding shares of POS Portal, a leading provider of payment devices and services primarily to the SMB market segment in the United States. POS Portal joined our Worldwide Barcode, Networking & Security operating segment. With the addition of POS Portal, we believe we have created the industry's leading payments channel, ensuring customers have access to the solutions, services and support that can help them be successful.

Our Strategy

Our objective is to continue to grow profitable sales in the technologies we sell and to focus on growth in higher margin businesses. We continue to evaluate strategic acquisitions to enhance our technological offerings and service capabilities. In doing so, we face numerous challenges that require attention and resources. Certain business units and geographies are experiencing increased competition for the products and services we sell. This competition may come in the form of pricing, credit terms, service levels and product availability. As this competition could affect both our market share and pricing of our products, we may change our strategy in order to effectively compete in the marketplace.

For the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2017, net sales for the Barcode, Networking & Security segment increased $126.0 million and $119.1 million compared to the prior-year quarter and six month period, respectively. Excluding the foreign exchange positive impact and net sales from the POS Portal acquisition, adjusted net sales increased $96.6 million, or 16.3%, for the quarter ended December 31, 2017 and $69.5 million, or 5.7%, for the six months ended December 31, 2017. The increase in net sales and adjusted net sales for the quarter and six month period is primarily due to sales growth in North America and Europe.

Worldwide Communications & Services

The Communications & Services segment consists of sales to customers in North America, Europe and Latin America. For the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2017, net sales for the Communications & Services segment increased $1.5 million, and $0.3 million, compared to the prior-year quarter and six month period, respectively. Excluding the foreign exchange impact, adjusted net sales decreased $2.7 million, or 0.9%, for the quarter ended December 31, 2017 as a result of lower sales volume in our North American business, excluding Intelisys, partially offset by sales growth in Brazil. Intelisys sales increased quarter-over-quarter. Excluding the foreign exchange impact and net sales from the Intelisys acquisition for the three months ended September 30, 2017, adjusted net sales decreased $13.1 million, or 2.1%, for the six months ended December 31, 2017, primarily due to lower sales volume in our North American business, partially offset by sales growth in Brazil.

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") increased $7.9 million and $17.8 million for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively, as compared to the prior year. The increase in SG&A for the quarter and six months is primarily due to increased employee-related expenses, largely due to recent acquisitions.

The increase in depreciation expense for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2017 of $1.0 million and $2.2 million, respectively, is largely due to the depreciation on assets acquired through recent acquisitions and the investments in IT systems.

The increase in amortization expense of $1.3 million and $3.2 million for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively, is largely due to assets acquired through our POS Portal acquisition.

We present changes in fair value of the contingent consideration owed to the former shareholders of businesses that we acquire as a separate line item in operating expenses. We recorded fair value adjustment losses of $6.9 million and $23.8 million for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively. The loss from change in fair value of contingent consideration for the quarter is largely due to the recurring amortization of the unrecognized fair value discount as well as an adjustment for the higher probability of achieving estimated future results for Intelisys. The loss for the six months period is primarily driven by changes in the estimate of the current year payment to Network1, additional agreed upon adjustments to the projected final settlement for Network1 and the recurring amortization of the unrecognized fair value discount. An earnout payment was paid to the former shareholders of POS Portal during the quarter ended December 31, 2017.
